19 July - 31 August
This Summer, Pendennis Castle is Your Family's Ultimate Adventure Playground!
Looking for the perfect day out that combines history, hilarity, and endless fun? Look no further than Pendennis Castle this summer – where centuries of fascinating heritage meet modern family entertainment in the most spectacular setting imaginable.
Get Silly with Taskmaster Challenges!
Ready to embrace your competitive (and slightly ridiculous) side? English Heritage have teamed up with TV's hit show Taskmaster to bring you a summer full of wonderfully silly challenges as you explore the castle grounds. Grab your Taskmaster score card at the entrance and prepare for tasks that will have the whole family laughing, thinking, and possibly questioning their sanity – in the best possible way!
Keep your eyes peeled for rubber ducks hiding in the most unexpected places. Once you've completed your tasks, celebrate your questionable decision-making skills with some victory selfies in our designated finishing zone.
Fair warning: Alex and the Taskmaster team won't be there to judge your efforts, which means you're completely in charge of your own chaos. Questionable? Absolutely. Exciting? Even more so!
More Than Just Medieval Walls
While the castle itself offers incredible history to explore – from Tudor fortifications to tales of ancient sieges – there's so much more to discover:
Mini Golf: Perfect your putting skills with mini golf available every single day of the school holidays. Whether you're aiming for that elusive hole-in-one or just enjoying some friendly family competition, it's the ideal way to add some sport to your castle adventure.
